Book excerpt: September 25, 1985. The worst storm in half a century is headed towards the United States, her point of landfall--Fire Island, a narrow sandbar hugging the shore of Long Island. The East Coast is evacuated for hundreds of miles north and south, but on Fire Island itself, ten people refuse to eave. In Dark Wind, a remarkable work of nonfiction, John Jiler tells the story of those people. A gay man with AIDS stayed behind because he had nothing left to lose. One pair of fiends tried to endure the storm with deep, meditative prayer; another trio, with a wild, chattering cocktail party. Also on the island lay the Sunken Forest, an ancient woods teeming with birds, plant, and animal life that was no less profoundly threatened by the power of Hurricane Gloria. In this literary tour de force, Jiler combines the results of in-depth interviews with the survivors and detailed knowledge of the unique social and natural history of Fire Island to produce a panoramic account of nature in its inexplicable, sublime fury.

Book excerpt: Centuries after the Plague, detailed in Humanicide, humanity lives on... Charles Fasail was born to be a student on the island nation of Alp, a colony of scholars on an illiterate world—the terraformed Luna. For seven years he survived as an indentured dockworker after his home was destroyed in a cataclysmic firestorm. Earning his way out of servitude and joining a wagon train into the interior lands to find a place of his own should have been his bright, new beginning. All that was lost to an attack by the forest dwelling Kimmer and the betrayal by his older brother. It left him on a solitary path, struggling to be the Alpine scholar he was born to be. He had to wander a fascinating world similar to Far Earth in the sky above, but shaped by the lighter gravity, the 48-hour days, and the oxygen-rich atmosphere created by its transformation. All he had was his early training and, hidden in his backpack, his father’s impulse gun, a relic from the ancient days of lost technology. Alpine Duty is the first book of the Lunar Alpine trilogy. Henry Melton has been crafting the Project history line since the 70s, building an alternate history of mankind that stretches from the current day to a new destiny among the stars.

Book excerpt: Centuries after the Plague on terraformed Luna, recovering humanity faces its greatest threat, an orbiting asteroid colony prepared to destroy them. Using his beamship to explore the far reaches of the forested world of Luna was a joy for Charles—being on the other side of the world put him out of the reach of the people who were trying to kill him. But duties at home called him back to Stampz, where a new Alpine refugee had appeared with a bad attitude and a ready blade when she felt threatened. Plus, he really didn’t mind making deliveries for Duke James who had provided a safe refuge for his people, but getting back into the public eye put him back in danger, and when he barely escaped destruction again, it seemed a great idea to play dead. But was that wise, or was letting his enemies think they had succeeded actually the worst thing he could have done? Alpine Destiny is the third and final book of the Lunar Alpine trilogy. Henry Melton has been crafting the Project history line since the 70s, building an alternate history of mankind that stretches from the current day to a new destiny among the stars.

Facing the ugly truth that his dream of rebuilding his homeland might be a lost cause, Charles finds himself with great power and no goal to give his life meaning. Reaching out to one of his only friends, they realize that perhaps there still exists a library they could use to restore literacy to Luna, off in the abandoned L5 colonies in space. Charles has the only spaceship left on the forested world, the only way to reach those books, but that just might increase the number of people who wanted him and the ship destroyed! The High Quest is the second book of the Lunar Alpine trilogy.
